From the kickstarter page, "We have different combat systems in mind to reach this goal and will engage backers on this topic throughout the process." AKA, I don't think they know yet and they're going to be asking the community down the road if we'd prefer RTWP or TB ( or something new? ). How awesome is that?

I would bet my pledge 1000 times over it will not be action based or a hack & slash however.
